Probably the easiest thing to do would be to make the confirm branch
send some javascript to the client for it to then go to the resource to
download. That way the confirm will complete, it'll go back to the
previous page, then fetch the resource to download.
Another approach would be to add a hidden iframe which has a url of the
resource as the confirm true branch.
